GAE App cannot run on Appscale

[xybrek]

My application runs perfectly in Google App Engine itself but Appscale cannot run it although it is the same package (war).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

root@node1234-appscale:~# appscale status

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

AppScale is starting: 1 of 1 nodes are initialized, 1 of 1 nodes are loaded, 0 of 2 services are started

PROJECT ID            SERVICE ID    HTTP/HTTPS    APPSERVERS/PENDING    REQS. ENQUEUED/TOTAL    STATE

appscaledashboard  default             1080/1443         0/1                                          0/0                                           Ready

gaeapp                   default             8080/4380         0/1                                          0/0                                           Starting

Some nodes are in alarm state:

PUBLIC IP       PRIVATE IP      ALERT MESSAGE

123.45.678.901  123.45.678.901  Only 14.0% of '/' partition at db node is free

As soon as AppScale Dashboard is started you can visit it at http://123.45.678.901:1080/status and see more about your deployment

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's another problem although `appscaledashboard` has started with Ready state after running `appscale status` after few minutes it is back in Starting state, is this a bug?

Anyway my my problem is the gaeapp described here is stuck at 'Starting' state what could be wrong with Appscale where it can't run the same app that runs in GAE cloud itself, no modification or anything on the project package deployed. 

And a side question, how to restart Appscale? When we do appscale down then appscale up again it asks us for email/password setup again etc. is there a way to just restart the whole system without having to all configuration again?

Check /var/log/appscale/app___<your-app-id>.log to see if there are any problems starting your app.

If you'd like to avoid re-entering your username and password when starting AppScale, you can use the `admin_user` and `admin_pass` fields in your AppScalefile.

Hi Chris, 

I think Appscale forgot to be able to parse or skip the <runtime> tag in appengine-web.xml since this was the issue that prevented the app from running based on the logs.

We use this tag to tell GAE which runtime to use from the official GAE docs. If this is not supported feature by Appscale I think it should just be ignored instead of not deploying the app. 

Cheers.
